Question:medium

The area (in sq. units) of the region bounded by the parabola $x = \frac{y^2}{2}$ and the line $x = y + 4$ is

Show Hint

Logic Tip: When a parabola opens horizontally (i.e., its axis of symmetry is parallel to the x-axis), it is almost always more efficient to integrate with respect to $y$. Integrating with respect to $x$ would require splitting the area into multiple integrals and dealing with square root functions.
